"Me?" Zhou Ye was stunned, then shook his head.
"I can't do it. I'm in the Shattering Void Realm and I'm very weak."
In the distance, the little holy elephant stopped practicing and then said: "Why do you want to become stronger?"
"From the moment we are born, we are weak. Facing the strong, we are nothing. Because of this, we must become strong and work hard to get rid of the word weak."
King Lei Yan nodded in sympathy.
"What Bai Sheng said makes sense. Besides, you are still young. With the talent you have shown now, you have a chance to aspire to the top. This is one of the reasons why I believe you can protect that silly girl." King Lei Yantian said slowly .
Zhou Ye shook his head.
"No one can say what will happen in the future. Under normal circumstances, I never make promises to anyone."
The future is uncertain and no one knows what will happen tomorrow.
What if the realm war starts tomorrow and he, Zhou Moucao, unfortunately dies
These are hard to say.
"What are you afraid of?" King Lei Yan asked.
"I'm not afraid of death." Zhou Ye chuckled, and then said calmly after the smile disappeared: "I'm afraid of things happening that I don't want to see happen."
Little Shengxiang came over, sat down next to Zhou Ye, and then said with a smile: "It's true that the future is uncertain. Brother, sometimes how the future develops depends on yourself."
"Sometimes, when you are strong enough, your words and deeds will affect everything in the world, and anything you don't want to see will not happen." King Lei Yan said.
"I know."
Zhou Ye nodded.
He understands all these principles.
As long as you are strong enough, you can dominate everything.
But Zhou Moucao is not strong, he is even a little weak.
"I know what you are worried about." A smile appeared on King Lei Yantian's face.
After patting Zhou Ye on the shoulder, he said: "Don't worry, before you aspire to the top, I, Lei Yan, will do my best to ensure that your road is smooth!"
King Lei Yan's voice was very calm, with a slight smile on his face.
But after saying these words, Zhou Ye felt heavy pressure.
"You are a powerful Dao Slayer and one of the patron saints of the Wood Realm. You should not do this. You should devote all your energy to protecting all living beings in the Wood Realm."
Hearing this, Lei Yan shook his head.
"The current Wood World is different from the Wood World in the past. The four emperors are enough to protect all living beings in the Wood World."
Zhou Ye had nothing to say.
Indeed, now that the Wood Realm has four emperors, it should be easy to protect the realm.
Then King Lei Yan is indeed relatively free.
But Zhou Ye felt a slight pain in his balls.
"The Six Realms are not peaceful now. Let's wait until this storm has passed before we talk about this matter." Zhou Ye sighed.
"No, I want your promise now." King Lei Yan shook his head.
"If the realm war breaks out and I die, I won't be able to hear your promise." King Lei Yan said this with a calm expression.
Zhou Ye looked at him and then asked: "As the second disciple of Qingxu Mountain, I only have the cultivation level of Shattering Void Realm. If a war breaks out in the realm, I believe I will die faster than anyone else. By that time , What’s the use of a promise?”
"What should I do after I die?"
King Lei Yan looked ruthless.
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no matter who wants your life, they must face me! If they want to kill you, they must first step over my body, Lei Yan!"
The little holy elephant raised his eyebrows.
It sounds like you two are in love.
"You..." Zhou Ye was speechless.
He, Zhou Moucao, is not afraid of death, but he likes the feeling of freedom and does not want to be bound by any promises.
But if it comes to being determined to express his attitude to King Lei Yan, Zhou Ye knows that he can't do it.
"I used to be the number one genius in the wood world. I was very arrogant at that time, and I didn't like anyone. Later, when I became enlightened, I realized that even if I treat people like this, there are so many people who are willing to fight to keep me. Give up life.”
"I have only two goals in my life, to protect the Wood World for those old friends, and the other one is to protect that silly girl."
King Lei Yantian calmed down for a moment and then continued: "Many times when I am doing the first thing, I cannot take care of the second thing."
"To give a simple analogy, if you have been to the human world, you should know that loyalty and filial piety cannot have both ends. I am loyal to all living beings in the Wood Realm, but I cannot protect that silly girl properly. Even if I am in the Dao-killing realm, there is nothing I can do. She is stronger than me. There are many more.”
"I understand what you mean." Zhou Ye nodded.
"But I see hope in you." King Lei Yan said sincerely.
Zhou Ye didn't answer.
Everything I have today, apart from a little hard work on my own, is all thanks to the help of my cheating father and my own background.
Zhou Ye felt that he was not outstanding and could not bear the expectations of King Lei Yan.
"Brother, there is no need to hesitate. Since you live in Qingxu Mountain, you are a family. Isn't it the right thing to protect your family?" The little holy elephant raised his arm and put it on Zhou Ye's shoulder.
Zhou Ye raised his eyebrows.
What Little Holy Elephant said makes sense.
This is something that I cannot avoid no matter what.
Since they are family members, they must be protected, even if they are weak now.
"I can't protect anyone at this stage, but when I become stronger, I will not let go of anyone who hurts my family." Zhou Ye said to King Lei Yan.
"Your words are enough." King Lei Yan was very pleased.
In the end, the little holy elephant still saw clearly.
"Okay, you guys should have a good rest." After patting Zhou Ye on the shoulder, King Lei Yan disappeared.
Little Shengxiang hugged Zhou Ye, looking like the two brothers were getting along well.
"Brother, sometimes don't think too much. The more you think about it, the more complicated it becomes, so why don't we make it simpler, right?" the little holy elephant asked with a smile.
"You didn't seem very smart before, but I didn't expect you to see this matter so thoroughly." Zhou Ye shook his head with a smile.
The little holy elephant squeezed Zhou Ye with his shoulders, raised his eyebrows at him, and then asked in a low voice: "Brother, the top priority is to become stronger. Only when you become stronger can you protect Mr. Lu properly."
Zhou Ye's mouth twitched.
"Come on, I'm optimistic about you." The little holy elephant laughed.
…
Among the clouds.
"That's solved. I really admire you." Erdan said with a smile.
King Lei Yan sighed.
"The little holy elephant still sees things thoroughly."
Erdan shook his head, and then said sternly: "This is also normal. Bystanders know better. What's more, the longer this matter is delayed, the worse it will be for you, and it may even become your inner demon and obsession. It's okay now, you The only heavy responsibility is to protect the Wood World."
"I'm not completely relieved yet." King Lei Yan laughed loudly.
"You'll be completely relieved when both of them become emperors, right?" Erdan teased.
He didn't understand King Lei Yan's thoughts, but as an older brother, his sister should occupy a big place in his heart.
"Emperor Cheng..." King Lei Yan was a little worried.
"If that silly girl wants to become an emperor, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. Even the most dazzling Qing Emperor has been stuck at the peak of the Immortal Realm for five thousand years. And that silly girl is inherently deficient. It's probably as difficult as ascending to heaven to become an emperor. "
Seeing that King Lei Yan was a little agitated, Erdan stood up and walked to his side, comforting him: "It's okay, don't worry, I know that guy Zhou Ye better."
"He actually understands it in his heart, but he just doesn't want to say it. Believe me, he can do it."
"Yes." King Lei Yan nodded.
"I remember when I first met that guy, I asked him if he wanted to proclaim himself emperor. What do you think he said?" Erdan asked with a smile.
"Oh? What did he say?" King Lei Yan suddenly became interested.
"That guy said he wanted to become an immortal directly on the spot." Erdan curled his lips and said with some helplessness: "I was only in the early stage of the Emperor Realm before, and I didn't even become an immortal, so I still led him to become an immortal? How special is that? How can you dream!"
"Hahaha." King Lei Yan laughed loudly.
"Later, I asked him if he had any dreams, and he said yes, which was to beat up his senior sister." Erdan continued.
"Then what?" King Lei Yan asked.
"Then?"
"Hmph! I told him that I would beat him up, but that brat threatened to beat up my senior sister, and I will beat you up!" Erdan imitated Zhou Ye's behavior at that time.
"This kid is really interesting..." King Lei Yan nodded with a smile.
"But if this kid dares to bully that silly girl, I'll stab him through first." A weird smile appeared on King Lei Yantian's face.
Erdan smiled and said nothing.
With Zhou Ye's growth rate, I'm afraid it won't be long before he becomes the original Qing Emperor, and may even be more dazzling than the Qing Emperor.
"It should be easy for this kid to become immortal, but if he wants to become an emperor, he may be robbed and killed by both the immortal and demon worlds." Erdan said with some worry.
"It's too early to talk about this now, but I believe that when that time comes, we will use all our strength to ensure that he becomes emperor!" King Lei Yantian said seriously.
"I know, this is the style of the Wood World." Erdan nodded.
Erdan felt nothing in his heart.
His strength has returned to the Supreme Realm, and it won't take long to return to the Immortal Realm.
Although he was not at his original peak, Erdan felt that he could protect Zhou Ye and go a long way.
When I can no longer protect myself, there will still be King Lei Yan and Emperor Qing.
"Follow me. It's boring to be in the Sunset Abyss all year round. I brewed a lot of good wine at that time." King Lei Yan greeted.
"Oh shit, you didn't tell me earlier." Erdan suddenly became more energetic.
Erdan and King Lei Yan walked shoulder to shoulder in mid-air and walked towards the distance.
…
Montenegro.
Zhou Ye's real body unfolded, and there were strong energy fluctuations all around.
At the end of today's training, King Lei Yan released the seal on their Xuandan, so at this moment Zhou Ye mobilized all his strength to prepare for training.
"Brother, I know you are eager to become stronger, but you can't fight so hard, right?" Little Shengxiang looked at Zhou Ye and said helplessly.
"The weak never have much say."
"The shortcomings of the weak will be magnified infinitely, and working hard is the only advantage of the weak."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Ye was immersed in cultivation.
All the spiritual energy within a radius of hundreds of miles was absorbed by him.
Above the sky, the rays of light from the stars were drawn and fell on Zhou Ye's true body.
